Zero tolerance is the ONLY and FITTING response to genAI being used in production of media.
Sure, you might think it's too harsh. Sure, they might've only used it for early stuff in development, etc
Listen, it's not even a SLIPPERY slope, there is NO friction at all unless we speak out against it.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

I am so bad at self promotion. I will spend months and months meticulously crafting a video with effects, sound design, music - but when it comes to telling people about it, I'm rubbish. Now I'm exhausted, waiting for 8pm youtu.be/V-13oKnhadg

No offense but I think we underestimate how many of our current problems, both cultural and political, are downstream of the decline in reading, the decline in learning and the loss of interest in the humanities.
